I own 1 house and claim standard deduction for taxes. Is there a tax penalty for paying off my mortgage early?

posted

No! Paying it off early is a very good thing to do. Are you going to use an IRA or 401K to pay it? There is a penalty for taking a distribution if you are under 59 1/2.

Oh, unless your mortgage has a prepayment Penalty. Ask your bank or lender. But that is not a tax or on your tax return.

Turbotax incorrectly calculated my average mortgage balance on Form 1098 in 2022, causing a lower HMID. I re-entered the correct information but no change. How to fix?
